Piggy-backing on the previous viral marketing commercial, nothing will become more viral than a parody of an already-highly-buzzed topic. And for the past month or so that topic is: "iPad".

Props to Doritos (and their creative marketing agency) for this a quite impressive Doritos microsite and this briliant Spoof:




And if you haven't yet checked out the actual iPad, you should.

Viral marketing is all the buzz - no pun intended. And it's an art. Most viral content happens by accident. Though if you are are social media marketing pro, a strategic viral marketing campaign is a science. Check out this video done right for Grasshopper.com that went viral just recently. A prime example of calculated success.

On 1/31 the Institute of Contemporary Art (ICA) in Boston had a screening of Award Winning Commercials from the UK. The screening was quite entertaining and showed all the way through without any... er... commercial breaks...

The one ad that had me bustin' a gut was from Volkswagen Polo - Confidence. Make sure you have your volume up when you view this commercial.
